The pathogenicity of the extracted WSBV from the hepatopancreas, the lymphoid organ, the stomach and the heart of infected shrimps was examined after artificial infection in shrimps(Penaeus chinensis). In terms of the infection route, the strength of the pathogenicity of WSBV was in the order of intramuscular, oral and dipping method. The influence of rearing water temperature on the pathogenicity of WSBV was the strongest in the order of $30^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$, $20^{\circ}C$, and $15^{\circ}C$. The isolated WSBV from the diseased shrimps showed very high pathogenicity regardless of their sizes, even though there was difference in time to reach 100% mortality. Degenerated cells characterized by hypertrophied nuclei were found in various tissues such as the lymphoid organ, the hematopoietic tissue and the epidermis in the stomach.

Visible injury symptoms such as necrosis, chlorosis and premature senscence in the leaves of Ginkgo bloba and Pinus thunbergii treated with acid rain of pH 3.2 or below were observed. The epicuticular wax erosions were observed by SEM after exposure to acid rain of pH 2.4 and 3.2 in G. biloba and pH 4.0 below in P. thunbergii. The adaxial epidennal cells and sponge parenchyma cells were compressed, and those were distorted in the leaves of G. biloba treated with simulated acid rain of pH 3.2 or below. However, vascular tissue was intact. With increase of acidity, mesophyll cells were smaller than those of control while intercellular space in mesophyU was increased. In P. thunbergii, sponge parenchyma cells and vascular tissue except epidennis were distorted after exposure to acid rain of pH 2.4. The size change of stomata in foliar injury was not observed, but the stomatal index and size of stomatal aperture in leaves treated with acid rain increased. The stomata of injured leaf were opened in both species examined.amined.

목적 : 방사선 수술의 목적은 병소에 최대한의 방사선을 조사하고, 주위의 정상조직에는 가능한 적은 양의 방사선을 조사하는 것이다. 이러한 목적을 만족시키기 위해 방사선 수술계획자는 계획시 isocenter의 위치와 개수, 콜리메이터 크기를 변화시켜 가며, 주어진 병소에 맞는 선량분포를 획득해 방사선 수술효과를 최대화시키는 수술계획을 수립한다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 모양의 병소에 대해 자동적으로 isocenter를 위치시켜 수술 계획시 도움이 될 수 있도록 임의의 병소 모델들에 대해 위의 변수들을 변화시켜 가며 얻어지는 선량분포를 비교 분석하였다. 방법 : 본 연구에서는 임의로 정의한 계산 영역내에 다면체를 병소로 가정하여 연구를 수행하였다. 방사선 수술시 하나의 isocenter에서 얻어지는 선량분포는 구형으로 근사할 수 있으므로 하나의 isocenter를 구로 근사하여, 각 병소 모델 내에 콜리메이터 크기를 변화해가며 가능한 많은 영역을 포함하도록 isocenter를 배치시켰다. 이후 구형선량모델을 사용해 선량분포를 획득하여 병소와 정상조직간의 DVH(Dose Volume histogram)와 각 병소 모델에 대한 통일 평면상의 선량분포를 비교 분석하였다. 결과 ; 임의의 다양한 종양 모델에 대한 50%의 등선량 곡선내에서 세 가지의 빔관련 변수들을 변화시킨 결과, 종양이 없는 정상 조직에서는 선량분포가 극히 낮았으며, 콜리메이터의 크기에 따른 isocenter 의 개수가 변화하는 것을 확인할 수 있었고, 이 경우 한 종양모델에서의 깊이에 따른 선량 분포는 크게 차이가 나지 않았다. 그리고, isocenter의 개수가 변화함에 따라 선량곡선이 변하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 결론 : 빔관련 변수인 콜리메이터 크기, isocenter 개수, 거리등은 어느 일정 정도를 넘기면, 병소내 선량 분포에 크게 기여하지 않는다는 점을 감안하여 빔관련 변수들을 최소로 고려하므로써 계획시 소모되는 시간 과 노력을 많이 줄일 수 있을 것이며, 또한 각 병소 모델에 대한 최적의 구형선량모델에서 공통적인 규칙성을 찾는 것과 실제 병소의 모양을 간단한 모양으로 근사화 시킨다면 자동적 선량모델을 이루는데 많은 도움이 되고, 이로 인해 효율적인 치료계획작업이 이루어질 것이라 사료된다.

This paper proposes a method of measuring and imaging the stiffness of human soft tissue to diagnose cancers or tumors which have been difficult to detect in ultrasound B-mode imaging systems. To measure the soft tissue stiffness, sinusoidal vibrations are applied to it, and the magnitude of its mechanical vibration is determined by estimating the temporal variation of speckle pattern brightness in ultrasound B-mode images. It is verified by simulation and experiment that the proposed method can estimate the relative tissue stiffness from B-mode images with a relatively small amount of computation.

이 글에서는 나노스케일의 직경을 갖는 섬유를 빠른 생산속도로 제작할 수 있는 전기방사공정(electrospinning process)에 대한 개요와 조직공학용 지지체(tissue engineering scaffold)로의 응용을 위한 제조방법에 대해 소개하고자 한다. 세포의 증식, 분화 등의 생물학적 활동에 기반한 조직공학 및 조직재생 분야에서는 일시적 또는 영구적으로 세포가 부착하여 생장할 수 있는 지지체(scaffold)의 활용이 필수적이다. 세포가 이상적으로 성장할 수 있는 지지체를 제작하기 위해서는 세포의 부착 특성, 화학적/물리적/구조적 성장 환경 등이 고려되어야 한다. 따라서 이상적인 세포 성장 환경을 구현하기 위해 실제 세포 주변의 미세환경(microenvironmenr)조건을 모사하는 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. 세포외기질(extracellular matrix)이라고 하는 나노크기의 직경을 갖는 섬유기반의 세포 주변 환경을 모사하는 방법의 하나로 전기방사 공정이 '90년대에 들어 활용되기 시작하였다. 현재까지도 전기방사를 이용하여 제작되는 나노섬유는 공정조건 및 재료를 다양하게 응용하여 조직의 물리 화학적 특성을 잘 반영할 수 있는 장점이 있어 조직공학용 지지체로서 광범위하게 활용되고 있다.

Abundant spinel lherzolite xenoliths showing distinctively different textural types such as protogranular, porphyroclastic, and mylonitic texture are trapped in the basaltic rocks from southeastern part of Jeju Island. These xenoliths show the textural spectrum from coarse-grained protogranular through porphyroclastic with bimodal grain size to fine-grained and foliated mylonitic texture. They tend to decrease in grain sizes and show more linear grain boundaries and more frequent triple junctions from protogranular through porphyroclastic to mylonitic. Spinel has different occurrence mode according the textural type. Spinel is always associated with orthopyroxene in protogranular texture, whereas it is scattered and independent of orthopyroxene in mylonitic texture. Additionally, porphyroblast from porphyroclastic and mylonitic textures has internal deformation features such as kink band, undulatory extinction and curved lamella, whereas neoblast is strain-free. These textural features indicate increasing degree of static/dynamic recrystallization from protogranular through porphyroclastic to mylonitic texture. The mg#[$=100{\times}Mg/(Mg+Fe_t)$] of olivine, orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene is relatively constant (ol: 88-91; opx: 89-92; cpx: 89-92) regardless of textural differences. The mg# of constituent minerals, NiO content (0.3~0.4 wt%) and MnO content (0.1~0.2 wt%) of olivine are similar to those of mantle xenoliths worldwide, also indicating that studied spinel lherzolite xenoliths were mantle residues having experienced 20~25% partial melting. The geochemical and textural characteristics have close relations showing that LREE and incompatible trace elements content of orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene increases from protogranular through porphyroclastic to mylonitic. These observations suggest that the studied mantle xenoliths experienced metasomatism by LREE enriched melt or fluid after partial melting, indicating a close relation between deformation and metasomatism. The metasomatism was possibly confined to narrow shear zones from where porphyroclastic and mylonitic textured xenoliths originated. These shear zones might favorably drive the percolation of LREE-enriched melts/fluids responsible for the metasomatism in the lithospheric mantle below the Jeju Island.

선양낭암은 타액선종양중 비교적 드문 악성종양으로 병리조직학적 및 임상적으로 독특한 양상을 보인다. 병리조직학상 종양세포가 신경주변으로 침범하여 수술당시 적절한 수술연을 얻기 어렵고 이에 따른 국소재발이 거듭되고 임파선전이 및 예측치 않는 원격전이가 생기기도 한다. 지금까지 선양낭암환자의 예후에 영향을 미치는 여러 요인들에 대한 연구들이 이루워지고 있는데 그중 조직학적 분화도, 원발부위, 종양의 크기, 수술연의 상태와 임상적 병기들이 중요시되고 있다. 이에 저자들은 1960년부터 1980년 까지 텍사스대학 M.D. Anderson 암센터에서 치료받은 이하선 및 악하선 선양낭암 각각 13례와 26례를 대상으로 원발부위가 환자의 생존 및 치료에 미치는 영향을 알고자 다른 예후인자로 알려진 조직병리학적 소견들과 함께 통계학적 분석을 실시하였다. 이하선과 악하선에 생긴 선양낭암을 비교한 결과 이하선에 생긴 경우 조직학적 분화도가 더 낮았고 악하선 종양에서 수술연에 종양침범율이 더 적었다. 경부 임파절 전이는 악하선 종양에서 많았으나 반면 원격전이는 이하선 종양에서 더 많이 발생하였다. 그러나 종양의 크기, 선경주위침범 유무, 국소재발과 환자의 생존율사이에는 의의있는 상관 관계는 없었다. 이하선과 악하선에 생긴 선양낭암의 여러 특성들과 생존률간의 univariate 분석결과 악하선에 생긴 선양낭암 환자에서 종양이 크거나 조직학상 분화가 나쁘거나(solid pattern), 경부임파절 전이와 원격전이가 생기면 예후에 나쁜 영향을 끼침이 밝혀졌다. 그러나 이하선에 생긴 경우 분석례가 너무 적어 결론을 내리기에 불충분하였다. 원발부위에 따른 선양낭암 환자들의 특성을 chi-square 검정법을 이용하여 통계학적으로 분석한 결과 이 두군간에는 의의있는 통계학적 차이는 발견할 수 없었다.

Purpose : When an x-ray beam of small field size is irradiated to target area containing an air cavity, such as larynx, the underdosing effect is observed in the region near the interfaces of air and soft tissue. With a larynx model, air cavity embedded in tissue-equivalent material, this study is intonded for examining Parameters, such as beam quality, field size, and cavity size, to affect the dose distribution near the air cavity. Materials and Methods : Three x-rar beams, 4-, 6- and 10-MV, were employed to Perform a measurement using a 2cm $(width){\times}L$ (length in cm, one side of x-ray field used 2cm (height) air cavity in the simulated larynx. A thin window parallel-plate chamber connected to an electrometer was used for a dosimetry system. A ratio of the dose at various distances from the cavity-tissue interface to the dose at the same points in a homogeneous Phantom (ebservedlexpected ratio, O/E) normalized buildup curves, and ratio of distal surface dose to dose at the maximum buildup depth were examined for various field sizes. Measurement for cavity size effect was performed by varying the height (Z) of the air cavity with the width kept constant for several field sizes. Results : No underdosing effect for 4-MV beam for fields larger than $5cm\times5cm$ was found For both 6- and 10-MV beams, the underdosing portion of the larynx at the distal surface was seen to occur for small fields, $4cm\times4cm\;and\;5cm\times5cm$. The underdosed tissue was increased in its volume with beam energy even for similar surface doses. The relative distal surface dose to maximum dose was changed to 0.99 from 0.95, 0.92, and 0.91 for 4-, 6-, and 10-MV, respectively, with increasing field size, $4cm\times4cm\;to\;8cm\times8cm$, For 6- and 10-MV beams, the dose at the surface of the cavity is measured less than the predicted by about two and three percent. respectively. but decrease was found for 4-MV beam for $5cm\times5cm$ field. For the $4cm\timesL\timesZ$ (height in cm). varying depth from 0.0 to 4.8cm, cavity, O/E> 1.0 was observed regardless of the cavity size for any field larger than about $8cm\times8cm$. Conclusion : The magnitude of underdosing depends on beam energy, field size. and cavity size for the larynx model. Based on the result of the study. caution must be used when a small field of a high quality x-ray beam is irradiated to regions including air cavities. and especially the region where the tumor extends to the surface. Low quality beam. such as. 4-MV x-ray, and larger fields can be used preferably to reduce the risk of underdosing, local failure. In the case of high quality beams such as 6- and 10-MV x-rays, however. an additional boost field is recommended to add for the compensation of the underdosing region when a typically used treatment field. $8cm\times8cm$, is employed.
